What’s different about engineering at First Circle?

• Engineers are given personal responsibility to solve real problems in our business from the day they join. That means starting small, and quickly growing into leading hugely exciting projects.
• Receive regular mentorship from senior engineers that have tremendous track records building software around the world.
• Building in emerging markets like the Philippines presents unique challenges, given the state of digital infrastructure. We are building virtually everything in house, which is not easy, but its a lot of fun. We have a track record of solving seemingly impossible problems that defeated many other start-ups, and the opportunity ahead remains enormous.
• We already have a core product that customers love - this is a unique opportunity to do zero-to-one building in a company that has already got a track record of delivering great things.
• Our exceptional engineering team: we love working together - no politics, just building, maintaining high standards, and having fun whilst we do it.

• Natural creators and problem solves who love critical thinking. You will not be expected to get it right every time, but you will always be asked to justify your thinking,
• Experience: ideally a degree or bootcamp related to engineering, computer science, etc. Professional experience is welcome but not essential.
• Skills: ability to pass the FC engineering code test that successful applicants will be sent.

• No fixed budget, we hire globally and adjust offers based on experience and market rate.
• Flexibility around working hours and location.
• Macbooks, private health insurance, training budgets and more!
• Opportunity to travel
